I was too distracted by Maggie Q to notice Michelle Monaghan as I watched Mission Impossible 3. Well... clearly I overlooked her. Michelle Monaghan talks about an airport misunderstanding with a glass gun full of tequila, being side-swiped by a bus, not being recognized on the streets, working with Tom Cruise

I really can't get sick of this song. I play it daily and it's great every time. How is it that Julian Casablancas can deliver such passion when he performs. It looks like he's exhausted, yet he's still so lively and animate. Spectacular. Maybe I'm obsessed, but I noticed he cut his hair too.

This song has been mostly performed live but this time KT Tunstall brings out the band. It's a full arrangement and sounds great. Regis & Kelly interview her briefly after the performance. She talks about her physicist father, playing with liquid nitrogen, and greeting a fellow Scotsman.

Mandy Moore pays a visit to Letterman to talk about her new movie American Dreamz, an uneventful 22nd birthday, having a dad who's a pilot.

Strangely, her character in the movie is reminiscent of Britney Spears: young ambitious and slightly misguided country girl.

She looks different. I can't quite pin it down to something. Maybe it's the dark outfit/hair or the seemingly fuller face/body. Has she jumped the shark?

After an impressive performance (no suprise there!), KT Tunstall gives a brief interview with Ellen. Although visually captivating, she explains how her amazing one-man-band setup seen in this performance was actually a "necessity" during her humble beginnings.

Unfortunately, there was a problem with the audio stream. I was left with a few options:
  1. Cut the video so that it starts late, after the audio is resync'd
  2. Leave it as is: it's fine in the beginning but goes out of sync for a the remainder of the video
  3. Leave it as is (version 2): it's out of sync in the beginning and then fine afterwards
  4. Edit the audio to my best ability
I chose 4. I duplicated some samples (audible around 0:30 - 0:34).

It is noticeable if you are familiar with the song (anyone else play the album on a daily basis?). Even though the problem occurs shortly after one of the most interesting parts of her performance, the loop creation, the main song itself is fine.
